Auto center function
When working on very large drawings I sometimes have to print only a small section. It would be handy to be able to have the option to apply the auto center function only to the said section.
Re: Auto center function
Sounds good - but how should QCad know what the "said section" is.J-J wrote: .... only to the said section.
Workaround?
Print preview,
One Page,
Move Paper Position to the "said section",
maybe adjust scale,
Would that work for you?

I agree and definitely need this for some of the plans I work on. See image.
I have previously added a feature request for printing only the selected area in model space.

Re: Auto center function
Forgot to mention my 'workaround'
In model space drag and select with the cursor the area you to print only, Edit > copy this and then paste this in a new drawing!
It works

Re: Auto center function
I do that manually. I drew my section on a new layer, hoping this would do it, but auto center takes the whole drawing, even if everything else is masked. Let's keep that for a future edition, that is not critical!
Thanks for the comments.

Only that we need an option in the print preview toolset to achieve this.J-J wrote:Any more thoughts on that "auto center to selection" ?
For the best support please state your operating system, QCAD version and add any supporting DXF/DWG files, screenshots etc...
